- 3 pound chuck roast
- 1 sweet yellow onion sliced

1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper
Heat a little oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the roast, seasoned side down. Sprinkle the exposed side with the rest of the seasonings.
3 pound chuck roast
Sear the roast in the hot skillet for about 3-5 minutes per side. Once seared, transfer to the slow cooker.
Add the remaining ingredients to the slow cooker and cover. Set the cook cycle for 6.5 hours on Low.
1 sweet yellow onion, 1 cup beef broth, 0.7 ounce Italian dressing mix
Once the cycle is done, let the slow cooker revert to “keep warm” for at least 30 minutes. (but longer is ok)
When ready to serve, use two forks to shred the beef, discarding any excess fat as needed.
Serve on buns, in bowls, or as you prefer!
